Buffalo Springfield - For What It's Worth (1966)

Lyrics excerpt ...
...
"For What It's Worth" is one of the most widely known protest songs of the 1960s.
[Verse 1]
There's something happening here
But what it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
A-telling me I got to beware
[Chorus]
I think it's time we stop
Children, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
[Verse 2]
There's battle lines being drawn
And nobody's right if everybody's wrong
Young people speaking their minds
Are gettin' so much resistance from behind
[Chorus]
It's time we stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
[Verse 3]
What a field day for the heat (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
A thousand people in the street (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Singing songs and a-carryin' signs (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Mostly say, "Hooray for our side" (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
[Chorus]
It's time we stopped
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
[Verse 4]
Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life, it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
Step out of line, the man come and take you away
[Chorus]
We better stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down

Trump's Support Among Young Men Goes Up in Flames as Midterms Loom
www.thedailybeast.com
... President Donald Trump's support among young male voters has collapsed in recent months, according to new polling, signaling a potentially serious challenge for Republicans as the midterm elections approach.
A new poll conducted by center-left group Third Way and shared with Politico shows that just 32 percent of men aged 18-29 approve of Trump, while 66 percent disapprove.
That 34-point deficit marks a dramatic reversal from Trump's 2024 performance, when he carried male voters aged 18 to 29 by 14 points en route to reclaiming the presidency. That was a far cry from 2020, when former President Joe Biden won the demographic with 52 percent of the vote. ...

That may have been a court's decision at first.
Was it overturned? Is it final? ...
I agree, it is not final at this point.
Kudos to the Justice system for that.
Unfortunately, the ultimate decider is the Trump-owned Supreme Court.
Not the people- and Constitution-serving SCOTUS, but the Trump-owned SCOTUS, the one with record-low? approval ratings.
